In The Car Lyrics - Barenaked Ladies

She fed me strawberries and 

Freezer-burned ice cream 

I said "good-bye i guess" 

She lifted up her dress 

And so i must confess 

We made out one more 

Time before i left for good 

She thought i'd come back but i 

Wouldn't want to seem like other guys 

A book-and-record love, 

We sat and read our books 

Between those longing looks, 

Compounded by our fear 

My tongue inside her ear, 

My tongue inside her 

In the basement of her mother's 

House where she once taped the 

First three sides of sandanista! for my car 

We were looking for ourselves 

And found each other 

In the car 

It was rare to do much more 

Than simply mess around 

In the car 

It was mostly mutual masturbation 

And though we spoke of penetration 

I'd have to wait for someone else to try it out 

Once i had this dream 

Where i slept with her mom 

A secret all along, unless i've got this wrong 

Unless she hears this song 

Unless she hears it 

On a tape inside her car 

With her new husband and she 

Turns to him and says "i think that's me" 

In the car 

We were looking for ourselves 

But found each other 

In the car 

We groped for excuses 

Not to be alone anymore 

In the car 

We were waiting for out lives 

To start their endings 

In the car 

We were never making love 

We were never making love 

We were never making love
